    Just an idea. Rather than saying £24.99, next Thursday, 36m, no layers etc etc. Can it just be on a ticker?

    I find tickers annoying, much rather see the game without a scrolling bit of text. Anyway answering questions gives the chat something to do lol

    Ditto.
    Once you have read them the repetition becomes annoying.

    Good idea but you will still get people coming in STILL asking even though its scrolling right in front of their faces!

    At least then the commentators can say "details on the ticker below" rather than reeling off five sentences every ten minutes

    but then I would be inclined to put up a second ticker above the first ticker saying for price,discount and release date see the ticker below :p

    Perhaps rather than a ticker what about a summary end screen? this can also be shaired on social media following the stream

    How does that stop people asking every five minutes in the stream? I guess they could just say "summary at the end folks" every ten mins

    Isn't there an option to pin a comment in the live chat by a moderator, at least on YouTube & Facebook (I rarely read the chat on Twitch, so not sure if it's also there)? Instead of obstructing the view in the video with a ticker this information could be in a pinned chat comment instead, right where people ask the question.

    Just have a chatbot programmed to say "£24.99, next Thursday, 36m, no layers etc etc" every thirty seconds.
